Bridgett's first blog

 My name is Bridgett McHenry. All of my life from my early childhood years, I have been a great fan of music. I grew up liking and listening to different styles of music, but my most favorite to listen to is R&B. What I like about this particular style of music is that it's fun to dance to. The rhythm and beat to a popular song can be fast paced or slow if you are in a romantic mood. An example would be like the 1970's classic hit movie, "Saturday Night Fever" starring John Travolta or the more romantic ballad, "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston. Both songs are good to dance to with your spouse or mate. If you want to "get your groove on", R&B is a popular style to dance or listen to.



My favorite R & B group of all time is Earth, Wind, And Fire, and my favorite song from this particular group is "September".

Songs of Inspiration: Music that make me feel stronger and want to change the world The first song that I chose for my analysis is a song that when I first heard it played on the radio I had made it my own personal anthem is by artist Kelly Clarkson titled, Stronger . When ever I hear this particular song, it makes me feel emotions of inspiration, happiness, confidence, freedom, strength, and yet as a woman, invincible! I find this song to be important to me because women are being abused and mistreated by men often, and are looked down upon by society. A good example is a lot of hip/hop rap artists like to use profane words about women in their song lyrics. I personally don't agree with it and have no tolerance for it. Therefore, no other woman should either. Women in my honest opinion need to be more respected, inspired, encouraged, acknowledged, appreciated, and recognized of all races and of all origins. Stronger was written by three song writers Jorgen Elofssen, Ali Tamposi, ...

 How a Music Video is Made Ever since I was a teenager in the 1980's during the MTV era, I was quite fascinated by watching music videos by my favorite artists such as Michael Jackson, and his most popular video of all time, "Thriller" and wondered how it was pulled off, and how long it actually would take to create such a masterpiece. After doing my research on this topic, I now know how a music video can be created and how it's produced.  The purpose of a video is to be released for a promotion for an album. The video is usually released before the album.  If the video gains interest, it may become viral. Therefore, the more promotion for the video, the more the song and the band will earn  money. A video is also like a short film or movie that tells a story set to music. Therefore, the narrative  tells the story to correspond with the song. The  process  of  making a video is to write a story and a script, then create a shooting schedule with a...

My Innovations and evolutions assignment

 For this assignment I chose for an instrument the saxophone. I went to two different websites which were 1. Liveabout.com and 2. Yamahamakewaves for my research on the history of when it was created, and the origin, and how this particular instrument was used. The saxophone was first invented by Adolphe Sax on June 28, 1846, in Paris, France. Sax was a musical instrument designer born in Belgium from 1814- 1894. The saxophone was always made of brass since it's first invention, but because of it's principles of sound, is classified as a wood wind instrument such as the clarinet or flute. How is it played? The saxophone is known for being a single reed instrument that usually played in Jazz bands. It also is played in Rock and Roll, blues, pop, funk, dance, classical and symphonic music as well. What was a popular song before the saxophone was invented? Before the saxophone was invented, a song that was popular was "The wedding march; Here comes the bride." Written by...
